...Although the basic theory of aerosol activation is well established, inclusion of numerical activation models (e.g. Jensen and Charlson, 1984; Flossmann et al., 1985; Pruppacher and Klett, 1980; Seinfeld and Pandis, 1998; Nenes et al., 2001) is in itself computationally challenging, so activation needs to be parameterized....

...expressed as (Seinfeld and Pandis, 1998): dDpi dt = [ ρwRT 4p◦D′ vMw + ∆Hvρw 4k′ aT ( ∆Hvρw TR − 1 )]−1 1 Dpi ( S − Seq ) , (A2)...

...The Köhler equation describes the aerosol nucleation process (Köhler, 1936; Shulman et al., 1996; Seinfeld and Pandis, 1998)....

...This is because the size of CCN is comparable to the mean free path of air molecules; thus, the probability, α, of a water vapour molecule “sticking” upon the growing droplet will influence 10 D′ v (Seinfeld and Pandis, 1998): D′ v = Dv 1 + 2Dv αDp √ 2πMw RT , (A3)...

...phase is proportional to the difference between its gas-phase concentration, c∞, and equilibrium concentration at the particle surface, ceq, (Seinfeld and Pandis, 1998): J = 4πRpDi f (Kn, a) ( c∞ − ceq ) , (7)...
